Tuesday 8 January

We left Monteverde at 7.30 and stopped for breakfast about 1.5 hours later, after the road had finally turned to tarmac. Even at breakfast we were able to admire the wildlife.

Later we stopped at a road bridge over a river to look at the crocodiles.

We arrived in Quepos on the Pacific coast, the town not immediately appealing. Our accommodation was the Blue Monkey hotel, a little way out of the town. After lunch we walked down a back road to the town. We passed a shop that sold made-to-measure bikinis and a second hand bookshop/ internet shop. We had a smoothie in town before heading back via the seafront (stopping to admire the Xmas decorations) and past the casino back to the hotel.
